South Asia is one of the very few regions in the world with geographical contiguity as well as linguistic and cultural homogeneity. The region inhabited by more than one fifth of global population is afflicted by a number of social political and economic problems compounded by political mistrust and suspicion. The South Asian states are plagued by inter state conflicts over boundaries. In addition there is a sharp increase in unemployment poverty epidemics drug trafficking and environmental degradation etc. in the region which have internal and external dimensions. All these issues pose a far more serious and immediate challenge to the region. The South Asian region has potential to acquire a momentum of its own leading to the total transformation of the region in the near future. The member states have to set aside their disputes in order to improve their economic and trade relations. They have to realize that it is high time to shift their focus from the security of the borders to regional cooperation. The contributors in the volume diplomats academia and media not only focused on the problems being faced by the South Asian countries but also suggested the amicable solutions to overcome these problems and the possible ways to reconstruct a new South Asia. Thus the main focus is to probe into various mechanisms to be adopted to make the South Asian region free from conflicts and enhance economic cooperation amongst the states thereby improving the welfare of the people. While analyzing the conflicts and misunderstandings between/among the countries in the region the volume tries to underline the issues related to human development traditional and non traditional security and the role of external powers in the peace process of South Asia. 252 pp.

WTO is seen largely as a symbol of North South conflict due to divergent perceptions of the developed and developing countries on the Multilateral Trading System. This north south divide is reflected in their ministerial negotiations where the rich countries try to impinge their ultimate authority over the global economy leaving thus limited options to the poor countries to defend their economic space notwithstanding the fact that the developing countries account for nearly 80 percent of WTO membership. There is now a growing concern among the South Asian countries including the four least developed countries on the restrictions imposed by the developed countries in the form of new clauses in the WTO framework. The initiation of liberalization in these countries in the early 1990s did not improve the trade prospects significantly. South Asian countries in general and India in particular is now taking keen interest in cooperating with the fellow developing countries and championing their cause at the international fora. This volume emphasizes the stand of South Asian countries to safeguard their trade prospects by protecting from the restrictions imposed by the developed countries in several clauses under different agreements of WTO. It is hoped that this volume will become an important addition to the existing literature on WTO as it covers the adverse affect of WTO on South Asia which has so far not been analyzed exhaustively. 348 pp.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Language: English. The Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi Sectoral Techno Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC) is a sub regional grouping. It is positively perceived as a bridge between the SAARC and the ASEAN regional groupings, as it embraces fier SAARC members viz., Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka Nepal and Bhutan and two ASEAN members , Myanmar and Thailand, around the Bay of Bengal and the Eastern Coast of the Indian Ocean Formed in 1997 with the main objective of promoting cooperation among the contiguous countries of the Bay of Bengal, the BIMSTEC has identified six agreed areas of cooperation, viz., tread and investment; technology; transport and communication; energy; tourism and fisheries. With the changing image and the recent economic clout India's increasing engagement with the ASEAN national collectively and individually is a positive step in the direction of its Look East policy. Though not all potential areas of sub regional cooperation in the BIMSTEC have received adequate attention in this volume, it is yet a pioneering effort in launching an exclusive collected work on the subjects as the literature on the BIMSTEC is very inadequate and wanting.
